The Amazing Pseudo-Haiku Thread (Instructions in poll)

[crossfire]

I'm putting the instructions as a poll so that they will always be at the top of the thread.

This is a fun way to poetically "dance" with other members.

Instructions:

Pseudo Haiku = the only structure rule is they must be 3 lines of 5-7-5 syllables per line...topic can be anything of your choice.

The Chain= you must begin your pseudo-haiku using the last line of the poem before as the first line in yours.

I begin with:

a haiku a day (5 syllables)
will keep the doctor away (7 syllables)
verbal supplement (5 syllables)

you begin with:
verbal supplement​

 

[Iti oj]

Verbal suppliment
Grown on organic parchment
squid ink letters flow

 

[BSM1]

Squid ink letters flow,
The words produced defining
The next line to read.

 

[Brickjectivity]

The next line to read
so long thanks for the mining
and so here is yours

 

[9-10ths_Penguin]

And so here is yours
Your very own cormorant
You can call him Bill

 

[Falvlun]

You can call him Bill
He lived on Capitol Hill
Getting fat and rich

 

[Sunstone]

Getting fat and rich
I outgrew every stitch
Clothing abandoned.

 

[crossfire]

Clothing abandoned
Now I'm freezing my a** off
Keep moving for warmth

 

[9-10ths_Penguin]

Keep moving for warmth...
If I snowboarder better.
I rest in the snow.

 

[Brickjectivity]

I rest in the snow
like a fireball in hell
not that hot I think

 

[NIX]

Not that hot, I think
something cooler would suffice.
I can't feel my tongue.

 

[BSM1]

I can't feel my tongue
But still it wags unfettered.
Words not understood.

 

[Shuddhasattva]

Words not understood
Ache hearts in Ill treasured chests
Another man's trash

 

[9-10ths_Penguin]

Another man's trash
Isn't always my treasure.
Get this off my lawn!

 

[Jayhawker Soule]

Get this off my lawn!
And take your damn dog with you.
(Shih tzus are well named.)

 

[Falvlun]

Shih tzus are well named,
they say. But who has ever
heard of fluffy turds?

 

[methylatedghosts]

Heard of fluffy turds?
A gaggle of paper bags?
Do not set on fire

 

[BSM1]

Do not set on fire
That which is left by front doors,
Stomp at your own risk.

 

[Jayhawker Soule]

stomp at your own risk
this thread clearly deserves it
